      1877:
      Inquest — An inquest touching the death of a 
      child three years of age named James Guilford, the son of Mr William 
      Guilford, of Pleasant Valley, was held on the 12th at the Crown Hotel, 
      Geraldine, before B. Woollcombe, Esq., Coroner, and a jury. Dr Fish gave 
      evidence to the effect that death had resulted from inflammation of the 
      lungs, and the verdict was in accordance with the medical 
      testimony.
      Remembrance is a golden chainDeath tries to 
      break,
 but all in vain.
 To have, to love, and then to part
 Is the 
      greatest sorrow of one's heart.
 The years may wipe out many 
      things
 But some they wipe out never.
 Like memories of those happy 
      times
 Of a family all together.
